Masterplanning practices in Bangladesh has typically been deplorable, with no concern for usability whatsoever. A good masterplan for a new town or a housing society must be a collaborative effort of urban planners, architects & engineers – with an emphasis on walkability & public space.
In Shubornobhumi & Park City, this focus on public open spaces is clearly visible. Both plans possess a vibrant city center, with large public facilities such as parks, recreational areas & markets. These spaces are spread out in a linear pattern to maximize its effectiveness on the entire community.
